The R. F. McKibbon residence (built 1900) is a Victorian-style house at 611 East Boundary Street in Montevallo.

The house was built for R. F. and Sarah Cathryn Warnock McKibbon in 1900. They sold it in 1944 to J. W. D. and Lois Galloway, who stayed for only four years before passing it to Melvin and Lottie Smitherman. The Smithermans sold the house in 1968 to Leonard and Bettie Lawley, who lived here many years, eventually selling the house to Fred, Peggy and Tina Dew. The Dews opened the house as a bed & breakfast in 2000.

Sisters Lyle Cunningham and Leigh Hardin purchased the home from the Dews and continue to operate it as the McKibbon House bed & breakfast. The house has four guest rooms with private baths, and wireless internet access throughout.
